From Lisa Chiu:

A decision to work in Beijing in 2002 completely changed my outlook on the world. Living in China, I was able to experience the enormous change currently taking place there and hear some really great stories. When I returned to the States, all I wanted to do was learn more about this dynamic country, so I went back to school and studied modern Chinese history. China is a fascinating country with 5,000 years of culture, and I'm so pleased to share it with others.
